Abstract

PURPOSE:To keep the thickness of an insulating film immediately above a polysilicon fuse constant, to facilitate control of fuse cutting through laser beam, and to improve the yield of a semiconductor integrated circuit, by using a high melting point metal film such as a titanium film on the insulating film immediately above the polysilicon fuse, as an etching stopper. CONSTITUTION:In the vicinity of an aperture window of an insulating film 6 and on the insulating film 6 immediately above a polysilicon fuse 5, a barrier metal film 8 is formed of high melting point metal such as titanium. A metal film having high conductivity such as aluminum film is applied thereon to form an electrode or wiring 9. After that, an insulating film 10 is formed on the whole surface, and an aperture window is formed in the barrier metal arranged at the end section of the aluminum wiring 9 and immediately above the polysilicon fuse. Then, the barrier metal film 8 composed of titanium and formed immediately above the polysilicon fuse is removed by using the insulating film as a mask, and using hydrogen peroxide liquid and the like.
